## Add the mysql APT repository first

Go to this page https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/repo/apt/ to download the .deb package to be installed to add the repository


No need to Login or Sign Up, just proceed to download by clicking "No thanks, just start my download".  At the time of writing this, the direct link is https://dev.mysql.com/get/mysql-apt-config_0.8.19-1_all.deb


## assuming the file downloaded was mysql-apt-config_0.8.19-1_all.deb and stored in your current directory

sudo dpkg -i mysql-apt-config_0.8.19-1_all.deb


## the following window will popup




## press Tab key until <Ok> is highlighted and press Enter


## update your repository

sudo apt update


## confirm that the mysql APT repository is not added to our APT sources list


sudo find /etc -name '*.list' -exec grep mysql {} \;


## The output should look like the following

# Use command 'dpkg-reconfigure mysql-apt-config' as root for modifications.
deb http://repo.mysql.com/apt/ubuntu/ focal mysql-apt-config
deb http://repo.mysql.com/apt/ubuntu/ focal mysql-8.0
deb http://repo.mysql.com/apt/ubuntu/ focal mysql-tools
#deb http://repo.mysql.com/apt/ubuntu/ focal mysql-tools-preview
deb-src http://repo.mysql.com/apt/ubuntu/ focal mysql-8.0


## Now we are ready to install mysql-workbench-community using apt install

sudo apt install mysql-workbench-community
